About the Book

Details of friezes, floral memorials, weathered statues, a black crow zooming earthward, stand in as a visual meditation on loss, memory, decay and ultimately resurrection. Photographed with high-speed grainy film the images in Père Lachaise En Hiver have a soft, misty, dream like quality. They facilitate a rumination on not only the cultural giants but the countless unknown names marked for posterity which still inspire dreams and reverie of the unknowable afterlife and the bittersweet now.
